Get big results in no time with bodybuilding pioneer John Little's scientific and practical solution: The Omega Set™, an ultra-intense variation on his immensely popular Max Contraction system.

From the Back Cover
"Human progress hinges on the commitment of a select few to not accept current knowledge as a final truth, to continue to strive to constantly improve their methods, their knowledge base, their skill set. John Little questioned conventional strength training methods and has created a system that takes traditional results to the next level. As a well-established innovator in fitness and strength training, his methods have been employed by hundreds of thousands of individuals around the world. His methods have been touted as the impetus for 'physiology books to be rewritten,' and can save hours of unnecessary time in the gym, and will open your eyes to the most up-to-date research and information available--a tremendously potent technology that, when properly applied, will result in real, meaningful, and sustainable physical results, and will help build a confidence in your own abilities that will permeate into all areas of your life."
--Anthony Robbins, Peak Performance Coach and author of Awaken the Giant Within (From the Foreword to Max Contraction Training)
"Groundbreaking. This is truly an incredible discovery that could cause physiology books to be rewritten."
--Ironman magazine
"A thorough, productive weight workout in less than three minutes? You better believe it! Larger muscles. Stronger techniques. Fewer injuries. What more do you want?"
--Martial Arts Training magazine

--Muscle & Fitness
"Don't be surprised if you see substantial results in only three workouts! That's how good this system is."
--Muscular Development
Big muscles in little time!
"[John Little's] is helping all of us learn more about how the body adapts to high-intensity training stress. . . . The scientific training approach he employs produces exceptional results."
--Ironman magazine

SCIENTIFIC & PRECISE
7 Aug 2006
Format:Paperback
This is the first bodybuilding book to actually take a critical and scientific look at the physiological and psychological mechanisms of the body that operate to preserve the status quo. This really explains why building muscle is so difficult for most people, particularly trainees that have already put on muscle and are looking to go to the final level (which, depending upon their genetics, may not ever be as great as they hope). John Little has done a masterful job of laying the obstacles out on the table and then applying science to overcoming them. The Omega Set is incredibly intense. I used Max Contraction with great success (gaining 14 pounds of muscle) in the past and am just starting to experiment with the Omega Set. It is definitely "the last word" (Omega) in high intensity training. The Nautilus North Study is must read material for all personal trainers.

A must-read for advanced bodybuilders
13 Mar 2006
Format:Paperback
As a bodybuilder becomes more advanced, progressively increasing resistance is not enough. Further progress towards one's genetic limits requires the use of even more demanding repetition methods. The Omega Set is about as demanding as they come.
Advanced Max Contraction Training explains the science behind muscle growth and the development of the Omega Set, how to overcome physiological and psychological barriers to progress, the results of the Nautilus North study and several case studies, how to combine Omega Sets with Heavy Duty training, and more. It is a must-read for advanced bodybuilders serious about maximizing their muscular potential.

big hype small info
10 Dec 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase
All pertinent info could have been contained in the one chapter where Little
tells us what the "advanced" is. I guess to draw out a lot of useless info is
standard for the fitness books. Advanced = do max contractions with too much weight
and instead of holding 5 seconds, hold till failure at less than 1 second, then have a partner
help lift back to starting position and repeat 3-4 times. (Max contractions negatives)
